Dublin - Prefab Sprout


---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: Half step down (Eb-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb)

Prefab Sprout
Dublin (1985, released 1989)
(McAloon)

From: "Protest Songs"

This beauty has interesting chords thus creating a special texture.
It is mostly picked.

It is not easy to find out what is played and even though I think I got
close, there are parts where I'm not sure at all. Especially the section
I tabbed out below doesn't not seem elegant enough to me. Suggestions
for corrections are highly welcome!

I don't really know the names of some of the chords. But I didn't want to
just "number" them, so I tried to name them anyway. Whoever knows more,
please comment!

[D/F#]Who does [F#m7]not a[Bm7]dore the [Em11]sound
Of [A]music in the names of [Em11]towns
To [D11]build a city on such picturesque [A7sus4]ground
That [Em]takes some [Bsus2/13]sort of [Bm13]flair[A7/13]

We[D/F#] draw a [F#m7]line the [Bm7]ink is [Em11]fear
[A]You stay that side we'll stay [Em11]here
It's [D11]far harder to keep it [A7sus4]up
[Em]Than to [Bsus2/13]tear it [Bm13]down[A7/13]

Does it [Gmaj7]take you back to the [D/F#]kind of world
[Gmaj7]Hindsight calls the good [(A)]old [Aadd9]days?[A]
Now that [Gmaj7]there's no room in an [D/F#]Einstein world
For [Gmaj7]simple cause and[(A)] eff[Aadd9]ect[A]

With [Em]stories [Bsus2/13]from your [Bm13]mother[A7/13]

The [A]heady cocktail glory is [Em11]born
